chip tricks. Once you have mastered these, you will

or World Poker Tour tables!
Chip Trick 1: The PULLOVER
This trick is very simple (probably the easiest poker
chip trick out there) but probably the most popular
amongst players. Simply place your customized poker
chips in a single stack on your poker table. Placing
your thumb and index finger on one side of the customized
chips and your other three fingers on the opposite
side, simply lift half the stack and move it to the
side. As you place it on your poker table, pick up
the original stack with just your thumb and index
finger. Place this on top of the new stack of customized
chips. Keep repeating this process until it is your
turn to bet!
Chip Trick 2: CHIP SHUFFLING
Shuffling or ‘riffling’ your customized
poker chips can be a great way to annoy your friends
after you have won their customized chips from them
in a big poker hand! The most important piece of advice
is to try this trick on a soft surface like a pillow
or a couch, as opposed to your poker table.
Start with two piles of 3 customized poker chips
next to each other. If you are right handed, position
your index finger and middle finger on the left stack
whilst placing your ring and pinky finger on the right
stack. Your thumb should start on the left hand side
of the right stack. To complete this poker chip trick,
use the middle finger to initiate the lift and then
slide the thumb over to the right side of the right
stack to help push the two stacks together. Once the
bottom customized poker chips interlock, the rest
slip easily into place.
Once you have mastered this poker chip trick with
3 chips in each pile, try increasing the number. It
is possible, with much practice and following these
top tips, to get to ten or more...This poker chip
trick is nearly impossible with light plastic chips.
Using the weighty 11.5 gram chips supplied by Personalpokerchip.com,
the trick becomes much easier to master.
Chip Trick 3: FINGER FLIP
This poker chip trick is also known as the “index
chip flip,” the “index flip,” the
“finger chip flip,” or you may have even
heard it referred to as the “front to back.”
This neat little poker chip trick looks very professional
when done correctly.
Hold the edges of 3 customized poker chips with the
thumb, index, ring and middle fingers (the thumb should
be diametrically opposite to the middle finger, and
the same should be said of the other two fingers).
Let the inner two chips fall slightly onto the ring
finger as the index finger is used to flick the outer
chip over the top to the other side of the poker chip
stack. As the customized poker chip falls, use the
index finger to guide it into the correct position.
Use your pinky finger to plug the gap between the
thumb and ring finger in order to make sure the single
personalized poker chip does not fall out past the
inner two. |
